Intro message

[Algot Runeman]

As suggested by the list confirmation message, I will introduce myself.

I am a retired middle school science teacher, computer skills teacher 
and technology director for the King Philip Regional School District, 
working there a total of 36 years.

I have been active in the Masachusetts Computer Using Educators 
(MassCUE) here in the US, and served on the board of directors for 20 
years. I remain active as a special interest group participant, writing 
regularly for the open source SIG called "Moving to Open Source Software 
in Schools" (link below).

I have recently become involved with the Massachusetts LoCo Team where 
we are working to develop a strategy that will help introduce and 
support FOSS use in Massachusetts schools.

My daily use computer is a Toshiba A45 laptop running Kubuntu 8.04 
because I am comfortable with the 3.xx KDE and everything just works.

I look forward to keeping up with this mailing list and getting to know 
the participants.
